Durable concrete structures

In scientific publications, information about the robot that checks the strength of concrete structures began to appear not so long ago. The “Search Boat” created by American scientists successfully completed the first test in working conditions. It is worth noting that its task is to check the integrity and strength of concrete surfaces that are inaccessible to humans. The senior manager of the project (Institute of EPRI, USA) said that a demonstration of opportunities and testing outside the laboratory was very, very successful.

During the testing, which was carried out on the dam near Niagara, the bot went along the walls and concrete bases of the dam, examining these structures for strength and integrity. The robot is equipped with a special device that allows it to walk freely on a vertical surface. During the study of the object, the bot, if necessary, is easily climbing through various obstacles, recognizes and steps through damaged pieces of concrete, bolts, nuts, and other deformed structures. In order for the building to meet all the necessary norms as long as possible only the best metal structures. The company «SK Metal» sells both black and non -ferrous metal rolls at the manufacturer’s prices. For more than ten years, SK Metal in St. Petersburg and in many other cities offers its customers the most favorable and effective conditions for interaction.
